2019 Bowman Next

Description

2019 Bowman Next is a series of four on-demand, printed-to-order, trading card sets issued by Topps in late 2019. All three sets were distributed similarly to the Topps Now cards, and can be seen as a way to bring the Topps Now model to the Bowman Brand.

Bowman Next

This fifteen-card set features highlights and participants in the 2019 Arizona Fall League (AFL). The AFL is MLB's annual showcase for the leagues top prospects. Like Topps Now, each card is a highlight from the previous day, and was only available for a 24-hour period. Each card cost $9.99. All players are depicted in their AFL jerseys.

Bowman Next Top 20 features, in Topps' opinion, the top 20 prospects entering the 2020 season. Beginning in November, 2019, one card was made available on an a la carte basis for a 24-hour period.

Unlike previous Bowman Next sets, all players are depicted in their Major League uniforms.
